Innambur  Sri Ezhutharinathar Temple

 

Sri Ezhutharinathar temple located at Innambur Near Kumbakonam  has an interesting history. King who ruled that area once wanted his accountant to bring all the accounts immediately next day. Accountant did not know what to do as he could not prepare all the accounts in one night. He prayed to Lord Siva. He came in the guise of the accountant and submitted the accounts to the King. Later the accountant came to know that the Lord has done the work for him. As Lord Siva wrote the accounts He is called "Ezhutharinathar." It is said that Sun God worshipped the Lord. It is said that Sun light falls on the presiding deity on a few specified days every year. Sri Appar, one of the four Saivite stalwarts, has sung in praise of Lord Ezhutharinathar. His consort is Sri Sukunda Kundalambal. Senbaga tree is the ‘sthala virutcham' of the temple.
